#2So if I lay a plank over the 300ft deep well on my property, it is "a bridge higher than a 30 story building"?

the article says the bridghe is that high -above- the ground. The depth below is not factored in, at least as I read it.

the deck of the bridge has just recently been connected over the valley below and is so high above the ground that you could fit the empire state building underneath it, and still have 360ft spare.
No, they're referring to the distance from the lowest point in the valley... so, yes, the plank over the well would be on-par with this Chinese innovation.

Only if he used a rocket to lay the plank.
